In an interview published in the December 8 issue of Newsweek, Will Smith extols the virtues of his boon companion Tom Cruise, whom the Fresh Prince of All Media describes as "one of the most open, honest and helpful people I've met in Hollywood, or really anywhere."
Reporter Allison Samuels follows up: "No one else gave you that kind of support in all your years in the business?"
To which Will responds: "Well, Eddie Murphy and Bill Cosby reached out and really helped me back in the day, but they were older. Tom is my age..."
Umm, Will...
Tom Cruise is your age, but Eddie Murphy is "older"?
Will Smith was born September 25, 1968. Save the grab for your calculator: He's 40.
Eddie Murphy was born born April 3, 1961. He's 47. Okay, so he's older than Will not as much as Bill Cosby, who's 71, but still, a few years older.
Tom Cruise was born July 3, 1962. That makes him 46... just one year younger than the apparently ancient Eddie Murphy.
Will: Put that copy of Dianetics down now, before your skull implodes.

2 insisted on sticking two cents in:
I never would have guessed that, actually. I would have thought that Tom Cruise and Will Smith were closer in age than Tom and Eddie.
Avitable: Yeah, but you'd think that Will, who knows them both, wouldn't make that mistake.
